Bodylift in a GU is easy to do . Kit is $350
Bodylift does not affect the air bags at all.
So there is no issuse even on a registered GU

x2 I have done a body lift on my GU wagon using one of Johnz kits. It does not affect airbags and it is perfectly legal. I applied through Qld transport, was given the ok to do it and then had it inspected over the pits and it was signed off with no problems whatsoever.

So do i need to do anything with the air bags? Or is it the same as any body lift? I have already got the blocks and cut and drill them.
